As a recent graduate, a young woman transitioning into adulthood, and as a professional, I have felt supported by Hillel’s team and by my colleagues.

I look forward to many more conversations and plan to continue to help students understand Judaism on their own, 21st century, terms, while connecting centuries-old Jewish ideas with the Texas of tomorrow.

In addition to all that I have already learned, I know I'll learn even more at Hillel Institute next week.

I am re-energized and excited for Maryland Hillel and the Jewish community to thrive this coming year, and I know I will be able to help make that happen because of the valuable experiences I have gained this summer.

"It is only through caring for one another, including the stranger, that we can really repair the world."

One conversation that takes place on every alternative break asks the question "what's next?" How can we take this experience, and put it into effect when we return back to our comfortable and privileged lives in America? How do we continue to help others, and tell the stories that we were told?
